Chapter 91 It’s better to be young
When attending an award ceremony, walking the red carpet is always an indispensable part.

As Lin Yicheng's veteran bootlicker, the Hunan Provincial TV Station initially arranged him to be among the last few to appear in the order of appearance.

Lin Yicheng directly declined. You can be high-profile in doing things, but you have to be low-key in life.

Who among those who came to participate in the Golden Eagle Awards today has much more experience than him? How can the seniors feel happy about letting a young boy like him be the last one to leave?
He is not a red carpet star, nor does he want to outshine anyone. Therefore, there is no need to show off himself on the red carpet, which would offend people and ruin his popularity.

So, after communication, Lin Yicheng chose a position closer to the front.

A fitted black suit, black leather shoes, a white shirt, and a slim black tie.

She didn't have any accessories on her body, not even a watch, she looked very simple.

As soon as Lin Yicheng stepped onto the red carpet, the audience on both sides immediately cheered and screamed. The decibels were much louder than when they met other stars just now.

"Lin Yicheng, we will always support you!"

"Lin Yicheng, you are the best!"

"Come on Lin Yicheng, don't pay attention to those clowns!"

"Lin Yicheng, just be yourself!"

……

Various slogans were constantly shouted out, expressing support and encouragement for Lin Yicheng.

To be honest, being a fan of Lin Yicheng is a bit miserable.

He neither performs in commercial shows nor gives concerts nor holds autograph sessions.

If fans want to see him, they can only do so on the big screen or on TV; there is basically no chance to see him in real life.

But fans don’t really care about this, and they can understand it. After all, Lin Yicheng has many identities. He is a director and an actor. He also has to find time to write novels and release albums. It is normal for him to be busier than others.

Moreover, the more this happens, the more proud the fans will be.

Look, our idols are versatile and excellent in every aspect.

Look at the idols you are chasing after. They can only rely on commercial performances to make money and maintain their exposure. Compared with Lin Yicheng, the difference is obvious: low!

As Lin Yicheng walked, he kept clasping his hands together to greet both sides.

Fans and audiences are his basic base. He should show enough respect to his bread and butter and let them know that their support and love are not ignored.

……

The red carpet was not long, and Lin Yicheng walked quite fast, so he finished walking on it in no time.

After entering the venue, Lin Yicheng first greeted and chatted with several leaders from Hunan Province.

These leaders were very enthusiastic and friendly towards Lin Yicheng.

Both dramas, "Hello, Old Times" and "Naked Marriage Era", were premiered on Hunan Provincial Television and were the top dramas in 2005 and 2006 respectively.

This alone brought countless advertising fees to the Hunan TV station.

Not to mention, thanks to these two dramas, Hunan TV Station further enhanced its influence and added a large number of new viewers.

How could these leaders not be close to Lin Yicheng? They wished they could tie Lin Yicheng to their own chariot from now on.

……

Seeing Lin Yicheng chatting and laughing with the leaders of Hunan TV Station, people in the conference hall had different expressions.

No matter how much Lin Yicheng is disliked by awards in the film industry.

But in the field of TV dramas, Lin Yicheng is the undisputed king, and everyone present has been defeated by him.

Naturally, one will have a different impression of Lin Yicheng.

Several of the country's leading private television drama production companies, such as Huace, Hairun, Zhouyi, Tangren, Rong Xinda, etc., all regard Lin Yicheng and his Xinghe Film and Television Company as their future rivals.

The overall pool of the TV drama market is so small, and now a new dragon has broken in, their own interests will inevitably be damaged.

……

And those actors, especially the female ones, looked at Lin Yicheng as if they were fairies looking at their royal brother.

Look at Yao Di, she was originally an unknown little girl, but what about her now?
Lin Yicheng single-handedly made her a popular first-line star and she became extremely famous.

To be able to survive in this circle, who has a bigger advantage than who in terms of appearance and acting skills?
Since ancient times, actors who wanted to become famous had to have a financial sponsor.

Without financial support, where would the resources and opportunities come from?

If Lin Yicheng could become his financial sponsor, he would become the second Yao Di, or even more successful than her!
Besides, it’s better to find Lin Yicheng as a financial sponsor than to find those fat and greasy middle-aged men.

Looking at Lin Yicheng's figure and appearance, not only will he not suffer any loss, but it's hard to say who will get the better of him.

……

Lin Yicheng could naturally feel the fiery gazes from behind him, but he didn't care too much.

That's right, he is helpful and willing to work hard for the development of the entertainment industry and devote himself to carefully teaching actresses their acting and singing skills.

It’s just that his personal ability is limited. Even if he can clone himself, he can’t take care of so many people.

Besides, Lin Yicheng is not someone who is so hungry that he will eat anything. He is selective about his people.

It's okay for everyone to communicate and guide each other politely, it's the norm in the circle.

Lin Yicheng still has principles. His principles are not to take the initiative, not to refuse, and not to take responsibility.

Finally, irresponsibility is the key point!

But some actresses can't get rid of it once they get involved, and that's a big problem.

If he tries to commit suicide again and the media exaggerates the situation, wouldn't Director Lin's good reputation be ruined?

……

Lin Yicheng found his seat in the center of the second row and sat down.

From this position arrangement, we can see how much the organizer values ​​him.

The first row includes the organizers and relevant leaders, and the second row includes well-known figures in the TV drama circle.

Either he is the boss of this company or the CEO of that company.

"Director Lin, I heard that your company has recently launched two new projects?" Huace CEO Fu Binxin asked.

"They are just two small projects. Compared with Huace, they are nothing." Lin Yicheng was very humble.

"An investment of tens of millions is not a small project. If your company has any financial pressure, you can cooperate with Huace. After all, we are old acquaintances."

This is true. Lin Yicheng rented Huace’s editing room for his two TV series for post-production, and he had dealt with several senior executives of Huace at that time.

However, as the company expanded, they installed several sets of equipment. Although they were still not capable of doing post-production for movies, they were still capable of doing post-production for TV series.

"Okay, okay. If you want to work with Huace in the future, Mr. Fu, don't forget what you said today."

"That's not possible. Director Lin, if you have any good projects, feel free to come. We at Huace welcome you very much."

"Thank you in advance, Mr. Fu." Lin Yicheng said with a smile.

"Director Lin, I heard that your recent dramas are all about spy wars?" A boss from Hairun nearby spoke again.

"Yes, they are all spy war themes. Currently, this theme is popular and has a market. Our company does not want to miss out."

"Spy war themes are not easy to shoot. Your Xinghe Film and Television Company used to make idol dramas and modern dramas. I'm going to say something unpleasant, Director Lin, don't mind it. It's a bit rash for your company to make a spy war drama."

Hairun Film and Television Company is the producer of dramas such as "Drawing Sword", "Never Forget You", and "Jade Guanyin", and is well-known in the domestic TV drama circle.

He is particularly good at anti-Japanese war dramas and spy war dramas.

This time, Xinghe Film and Television Company's foray into the field of spy war dramas is tantamount to competing with Hai Run for food, so it is not surprising that there is a hidden meaning in the CEO's words.

"I'm still young and willing to try more. Even if I fail, it's still a gain." Lin Yicheng responded neither softly nor harshly.

These two CEOs are about the same age as Old Lin. Compared with them, Lin Yicheng is naturally the brightest.

……

Don’t be fooled by Hairun’s current glory. In a few years, it will be favored by investors from all walks of life, and its highest valuation once reached 40 billion.

But Lin Yicheng knew that this company’s glory would not last long, and even its road to listing was bumpy.

Over the course of several years, the company attempted to acquire a backdoor listing several times but all failed, and finally had no choice but to list on the New Third Board.

Then there were no outstanding products, the stock price kept falling, and finally it was labeled "ST".

"It's good to be young. You never give up and you are full of energy." This statement made by Mr. Hairun seemed to be a compliment but was actually an insult.

Lin Yicheng didn't talk to him anymore, but he had already written Hai Run down in his little notebook.

When "Naked Marriage" was first broadcast, Commander-in-Chief Zhao Feiyu had already found out the source of the negative news about Senior Yao Di that appeared on the Internet.

It was the work of Hairun Company.

They feel that the rise of senior Yao Di poses a threat to their popular actress Sun Li.

The last time Lin Yicheng invited Sun Li to star in "Naked Marriage", the other party did not respond.

I’m afraid the influence of Hailun is also inevitable.

Don't be in a hurry, just wait and see.

Even if I can't do anything to you, Hai Run, now, but if you lose power in the future, don't blame Lin Yicheng for kicking you when you're down and giving you a beating.
